In the process of buying a JD 2555 according to the serial # it was produced in 1987 in Mannheim. It is an estate sale so i am trying to figure out a few things. type of transmission? It has 3400 hours and was stored inside. Is this a collar shift ?

Thanks

Look under the hood and see if it has a turbo. If it has the turbo I'm 99% sure it is the synchro 8 speed dry clutch transmission. If no turbo it should be the non synchro 8 speed dry clutch.
The collar shift is the non synchro. There was a deluxe and a standard version of the tractor if I remember correctly.

The syncro the shift levers are exactly the same but it allows a synchronized shift from forward to reverse between low range and reverse as well as synchronized shifts between gears in the range.

Hell of a good tractor either way. You can't buy anything in this class built this heavy anymore.

Odd it has wrong Deere emblem on steering wheel. Have you confirmed hour meter is working? They must have it cleaned up really good........or repaint. Estate sale or auction? If all correct that would push the $20,000 mark pending what all included with it(loader attachments). A tractor that nice deserves more pictures.

Copy and pasted.

The JD 2555 was made in two different price packages. The cheaper units was made to compete with the cheaper Ford and MF tractors.

The JD 2555 price fighter was non turboed, stamped steel wheels, flange and cheaper SCV valve, and the Power assisted steering.

The premium JD 2555 was turboed, Cast steel wheel hubs, rack and pinion axles. Full hydrostatic power steering, Top shaft Synchronized (TSS) transmission, and Deluxe SCV values with float.
